GOD PLEASE MAKE THE MOON ONE

someone did this on the last tutorial i watched and it was helpful, hope I can pass on the help :)
Row 1 (star)
Magic ring. Ch 2, work 16 HDC into circle. Skipping the Ch2, Sl St into first HDC to close ring (15 Stitches total)

Row 2
Ch 5, Sc into 2nd chain from hook, HDC into 3rd chain from hook, Dc into 4th from hook, Tc into 5th from hook. Skip 2 & sl st into 3rd HDC from chains to form point. Repeat until you have 5 points on your star, Sl St to join. Tie off

Row 3 (colour change)
Sc into first Sc of point, working down the stitches, HDC, Dc, Tc. skip Sl St, work up from bottom of next point: Tc, Dc, HDC, Sc, skip point of star and continue around (40 stitches total)

Row 4
chain 2, Dc into first 2 stitches, to form corner: Tc, ch2, Tc into same stitch. next 10 stitches: 2 Dc, HDC 3Sc, HDC, 2Dc. Form next corner, continue to first corner. Sl St & Tie off (44 stitches total)

Row 5 (colour change)
Ch3, 3Dc, in corner space: 2 Dc, ch2, 2Dc all in same hole. work 11 Dc until next corner space & repeat (15 Stitches/side, 60 Stitches total) Sl St closed & tie off

For those that, like me, are dying because the count of 44 sts (9:42) didn’t  worked out, she didn’t count the chains so the whole thing (w/chains) is 52 sts

I can't say enough how much i love the fact that you show the places you are talking about with a needle. It's so amazingly helpful!

Very clear instructions! Thank you so much for this tutorial! Love this star motif.

I’ve struggle with granny squares for awhile but this was so simple and I actually did it! Thank you for this tutorial !!😭❤️

WOW! I cannot THANK YOU enough! I've been trying to make this star square for 2 days straight now and still can't make it square! This video has a few tweaks, compared to the other video, that I'm eager to go try out! I'm eager to see the moon square too!  OH!OH!OH!!! I LOVE. LOVE, LOVE how you put the pattern up on screen AND showing the side breakdown was next level! - it's easier to find mistakes when I know how many stitches I should have for each side, and as a whole!* Great job! I'm looking forward to more of your videos! 😊 TYVM

Round 1: MR ch2, 15hdc, ss into first hdc
Round 2: ch 5, sc into second chain from hook, hdc, dc, tc, skip 2 sts then ss repeat until you make star
Round 3: Change color into tip of one point, sc, hdc, dc, tc, skip ss from previous round, tc, dc, hdc, sc repeat and ss
Round 4: chain 2, 2 dc, corner 2dc, hdc, 3sc, hdc, 2 dc, (tc, ch2 tc in same stitch for corners) repeat until square

Love this. I hope you do ones for the sun and moon in the future i personally suck at reading patterns. Would 100% buy the videos too. This was amazing

gosh i've struggled with this pattern for weeks, tried other tutorials but as far as i'm concerned yours is the best i could find. still struggle with having the same stitch count so i'm kind of freestyling this

Update: for anyone trying to use this star pattern with the sun and moon tote bag. There are only 4 rounds for the pattern in this video but the sun and moon squares for the tote bag have 5 rounds. So, to make them equal size you need one round of single crochet with the same color between the 3rd round and the last round when you switch to your different color.

Missing round for tote:
  •ch 1
* •sc until corner
  •[corner](2sc, ch2, 2sc)
  •rpt from *
  •sl st continue final round with new color

Good luck crafty people c:

Great video, very helpful.

I saw this mixed into a blanket of your sun and moon pattern on tumblr, and knew it would be a perfect baby blanket for a friend. I love your video tutorial. I will admit I considered dropping the star out of the motif when I saw you didn't have a written version, but the boxes of text on the screen were so helpful and I love the you point to the stitches with a darning needle as you go. This is one of the best video tutorials I have seen.
Thank you so much!!

what an amazing tutorial!! its so pretty and mainly easy to follow

Thank you for this pattern! It is super easy to follow and is super cute. I bought your sun and moon pattern and I am going to make a cute cushion cover with them!

This tutorial was amazing, all I did was read the blurb up the top and found it incredibly easy to read and understand!

I saw someone post pics on Tumblr of a blanket they were making with your moon/sun/star patterns! It was so pretty it got me to pick up a crochet hook for the first time in years! I learned how to make a chain in intermediate school but nothing beyond that, now I can do all the stitches you show in this video (tho I am having so much trouble wrapping my head around magic circles, everyone makes them look so easy)!

Definitely picking up the other patterns after my next payday, thank you for making all the stitches so easy to understand (the labelling really helped a lot, too)!

Omg you are a saint thank you so much for these tutorials❤❤

Hi Alyssia I love this pattern because you made it very clear and easy to follow so thank you for sharing❤

This is a fantastic little pattern! I'm an absolute beginner still learning how to do all the stitches, so repeating the basic stitches over and over again for the star is working like a little practice sampler!
I'm planning to buy the patterns for the moon and sun once I feel more confident with the techniques in this square!
